Well, I don't have any help to offer. I have this sane scanner, and have been having a lot of trouble with it, but I think it's problem with the usb code in the kernel. > It took some tweaking of /etc/sane.d/dll.conf and > /etc/sane.d/hp.conf.

I'm using the following. The usb line is optional (was suggested as a fix form my problem) and I was able to scan with and without that line. $ cat /etc/sane.d/hp.conf scsi HP usb 0x03f0 0x0101 #/dev/scanner # uncomment this if you're using a usb scanner /dev/usb/scanner0 option connect-device > But scanimage -L fails to find a scanner. I had this problem but it was that the scanner module was not loaded. Once the module was loaded scanimage -L worked. I use hotplug and I didn't have the usbutils installed, so the module was not being "cold-plugged" at boot. > I recompiled the kernel with usb-ohci.o and scanner.o hardwired into > the kernel.

I installed WinXP on a spare hard drive and everything works, so it does not seem to be a hardware problem.
